My friends niece just got to the country last week from Ireland, she's teaching a summer class then moving to Nashville to pursue music. I met her Saturday morning and asked if she had time before she left for Maine (to teach for the summer) for a sitting, and if she'd be interested. She was flattered, nervous and agreed, but only had an hour or so last night as she left this morning.
This was one of the last shots of the shoot, most of them are with her guitar, as she's a singer / songwriter. She told me she's not very confident with how she looks in photos, but felt this one really represented her well, and then sat with me for a little bit of creative post processing.
5d2, 100mm f/2, single AB800 in gridded beauty dish to camera left. LR3 + PS (to further clean up skin / sharpen image, dodge & burn).
I'll post more when I get them edited, comment / critique / question is always welcomed and appreciated.
